Third Swiss Structured Products Fair: Continuing the flow of information in challenging times
The third Swiss Structured Products Fair, jointly organised by Scoach Switzerland Ltd and the Swiss Structured Products Association SSPA, will take place at the Kongresshaus Zurich on 21 and 22 October 2009. The organisers place great emphasis on meeting investors’ information needs, even in a challenging market environment.
The broad variety of structured products ensures that there are suitable instruments available for every market situation and every market opinion. Regardless of the way in which the markets develop, the payout expected on these products is known in advance. «In its third year, the fair still offers investors the ideal platform for finding out which products are most suitable in a challenging market environment, how they work, how providers deal with issuer risk, and what the sector is doing to improve transparency in the market», says SSPA president Roger Studer.
